Putin's Special Representative: They are scaring you with the Russian threat to seize our money  - 1

NATO countries, the United Kingdom and the EU are deliberately promoting narratives about the “Russian threat“ to justify the seizure of frozen Russian assets. This was stated today by Kirill Dmitriev, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for Investment and Economic Cooperation with Foreign Countries and Head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, TASS reports, quoted by Focus.

"Why did NATO, the United Kingdom and the EU suddenly start coordinating and feverishly promoting the narrative about the “Russian threat“? This is not just to divert attention from mass migration, criminal groups, growing crime and economic decline. "Corrupt globalist warmongers just want to steal from Russian reserves," he wrote in X.

We recall that the European Commission is seeking the consent of EU countries to use the assets for Ukraine. This issue will be discussed at the summit of EU leaders in Brussels on December 18-19.
